Sixers' Jonah Bolden has been a force in the G-League this season

While Jonah Bolden has likely spent more time going back-and-forth between the Philadelphia 76ers and their G-League affiliate than most people travel in an entire year, it seems to be paying off.

Bolden’s time with the Delaware Blue Coats has been a major success to this point, and although he’s played in just two games, has posted averages of 20 points, 15.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game. Bolden is averaging 37.7 minutes per game over that span, so he’s getting the extended run you’d hope to see for a young player.

Although Bolden, who the Sixers selected in the second round of the 2017 NBA Draft, has seen little playing time at the NBA level, he’s showing glimpses of tremendous upside. The 22-year-old averaged just 3.7 minutes per game over four appearances with the Sixers this season, so his trips to Delaware are for good reason.

Bolden was on the move once again ahead of the team’s game against the Charlotte Hornets as well, with the team revealing he’ll suit up Friday night.

The team has recalled Jonah Bolden from @blue_coats. He will be in uniform for tonight’s game vs. Charlotte.
